"Mom, it was just for one night, of course I wasn't going to get his number ! That's not how I want to start a serious relationship with someone." Cora said rolling her eyes.
"Oh please ! We're in a new century. What about the fuck buddy ? " Since she got no answer, she continued to verbally attack them with questions, "Girls, when are yall going to get married ? San, you're about to be thirty soon ! Tic-tac, tic-tac, time is going fast ! "
Sancy sighed loudly. She was ready to go now, "Mum, leave me alone with that please ! Plus, I have a date tomorrow." She informed her little family proudly.
Sasha's entire expression changed immediately as a huge smile appeared on her face. She stood up and started shouting ”Amen” raising her hands in the air. She was happy. She felt relieved. One of her dreams was about to come true. God was answering her prayers, "Hallelujah ! Thanks Lord ! Yes ! " She screamed merrily.
The two sisters shared a look and then shook their heads, "Mum, can you stop please." Sancy mumbled annoyed, but loud enough for her mother to hear her.
"Baby, tell me everything. Who is he ? Oh ! We need to cheer first." Why is she always so dramatic ? Cora was glad to have inherited the calm side of her father. This little thought about the man that raised and loved her brought tears to her eyes. She was missing him crazily. She wished every day that he was still there. It was hard for her. It had been hard for the three women to cope with reality. Bryan McKall was the pillar of their family. The one who always knew what to say and what to do when there was a problem. The one who was always comforting his little girls when they needed him. The one who was spoiling his two grand-children like there was no tomorrow. The one who loved his wife unconditionally and never had difficulties to show it to her and the whole world. The man of the house. Mr. awesome McKall as Sasha was calling him. Without him, it was not the same thing. Life definitely changed of signification to their mind.
Cora took a deep breath and prevented the water to fall. She had promised her dad to cry the less possible, "Was it his car the other day ? " She asked her big sister curiously. She still wanted to know why a new black BMW was parked in her mother's driveway three weeks ago.
Sancy nodded her head, "Yes ! He wanted me to try it for him, since he was too busy to do it."
"And what is he doing exactly ? "
"He's a lawyer. His father had retired from Conner's law firm and now he's running the family business on his own."
Cora's eyebrow raised, "The Conner's law firm ? Like the largest law firm of USA ? Their revenue just reached $3,500/m and they had represented a lot of celebrities and billionaires ! Their family's house -No - I meant castle costs more than $2,000,000 ! And the oldest son inherited $25,000,000 for his twenty-first birthday ! And that son is very very gorgeous ! By the way he was on the cover. Mom, did you see it ? " She said loudly reciting what she saw in the magazine Forbes on Monday. She was beyond shocked. She couldn't believe it. Her sister was spending time with this amazing man.
Sasha was stunned, "Wait ! So...You're telling me that you're messing around with a rich man ? " She asked staring at her daughter.
